HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MMG!

Two years ago on August 31, 2008, I put together the first list of shops that made up the More Meaningful Gifts BNR. Who would have known that two years later we would have had over 250 shops participate, have over 3000 sales, have members been featured in countless treasuries, front pages, Etsy articles – including shopredleaf.etsy.com’s Quit Your Day Job feature (www.etsy.com/storque/spotlight/quit-your-day-job-shopredleaf-7909/) and our HandmadeRegistry.com feature (www.etsy.com/storque/spotlight/handmade-weddings-off-road-wedding-g...) and my ALL ETSY HANDMADE WEDDING feature(www.etsy.com/storque/handmade-life/handmade-weddings-a-simple-fairy...) in Etsy Storque’s blog!

The most important part of our thread has been the incredible friendships and relationships that we’ve been blessed to share in. I can’t imagine my life without you all in it!
